Running Accomplishments:

Marathon PR - 3:05 (3:06 at Boston)

Completed a dozen marathons and a handful of 50 mile ultras.

Short-Term Running Goals:

Consistent aerobic and strength training.

Christie Clinic Half Marathon 4/27/24

Long-Term Running Goals:

Sub 1:35 in half marathon.  Then might consider taking a shot at full marathon again.

Personal:

I started more dedicated running and racing in my thirties.  Eventually I developed symptomatic bradycardia and SVT which required a cardiac pacemaker implant and a cardiac cath ablation.  It has taken a long time to get back to running consistently again.  Counting my blessings and trying to remain more balanced with fitness.

A combo of jogging, running, and short sprints with several walking breaks between.  Just a fun run while the kids rode their bikes.

Easy run over a hilly course near my house.  It was misty and very moist outside.  I was soaked afterward.  Hamstrings were a little tight on the uphills.

Easy run with last 1.5 mi in five fingers.  Body continues to recover and responds well to the slower pace of training.

Easy run, very tired at the end due to humidity and dehydration.
